    Giro d'...toddler?

    Alas here the trip takes a turn for the worst and and comes to a quick conclusion. Mrs6 had sciatica from disc issues before we left, but the pain was manageable, it was fine through London but it got really bad at Lake Como. Had agonised for a couple of days, knowing we had the in-laws in the...

    Giro d'...toddler?

    This was just Mrs6 trawling Airbnb, so unfortunately no really special ideas! Was about $300 per night for our booking from memory https://abnb.me/qITTZdUzrBb

    Giro d'...toddler?

    The next morning we got the train back to to Malpensa airport to pick up the hire car. Not a top tier firm but this was the only reasonable price I could find for something to fit a baby seat in (ended up with VW T-Cross, auto). Few teething issues with the car, severe pressure to buy the...

    Giro d'...toddler?

    Today travelling from LHR to MXP in Euro-Business on BA, Elizabeth Line back out to Heathrow, if you dont get advance pricing on the Heathrow Express, definitely worth catching this line at only 10-15 minutes longer and about 12 pounds each way, can just use contactless like any other TFL...

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    I am looking at economy rewards seats to Europe next May, no problems finding them but I can't work out how to add a domestic connection on the same ticket. For example: 15 May 2024 MEL > CDG saver award seats available on search Search separately for HBA>MEL, plenty of VA seats bookable...

    Noise wasn't too bad in our room, we were above an alley so not main road, main road would be pretty noisy in an old building like that I think

    Giro d'...toddler?

    Now in London, we headed to Monmouth Coffee in London Bridge area to catch up on a few memories from Mrs6's previous times in London, from there we walked across the river to Shoreditch to look at a few other old haunts, stopping around the place for Coffee. From there we spent the day just...

    Giro d'...toddler?

    Apologies on the lag on this one, the trip unfortunately ending up getting cut very short, but there is some content to add, so let us resume... After two nights in Hong Kong we checked out and made our way to the Airport about 7 hrs ahead of flight time, just how things turned out with the...

    Giro d'...toddler?

    We stayed at the Akvo Hotel in Sheung Wan for two nights, seemed a decent price and on the larger side for a hotel room to stick a cot in. Great room and furnishings, Mrs6 impressed by the Dyson hair dryer in the bathroom, but the aircon was a little noisy. Really liked the area. Our time in...

    Giro d'...toddler?

    I did miss that one! You would think it would be something that is more readily available. I did encounter from QF F pics but CX I don’t think i saw any in F and not sure about J

    Giro d'...toddler?

    An early start and thanks to a lift from Sister6 (can’t get an uber if you need a car seat) we were on the first out of HBA up to SYD in Y on a QLink 717, ground staff were great and got us a row to ourselves to give us a little extra room (somewhere around row 20) and cabin crew were great. The...

    Giro d'...toddler?

    My first trip report, I enjoy reading them so hope this one stands up and thanks to all that go to the effort. After accruing a fairly hefty QF points balance through Mrs6's business spending, we needed to do something with them, and a friends wedding in Tuscany provided the perfect excuse. The...
